For the longest time, I thought I had the whole health thing figured out. Mixing in plant-based meals a few days a week and sipping on herbal teas, I believed I'd found a sweet spot of balance that didn't require too much explanation or drastic changes in those less-than-plant-friendly settings (i.e., social outings). But, oh, how I was mistaken. Some days I felt on top of the world, other days, not so much, leaving my body in a state of confusion. And if my body was a whirlwind, imagine the chaos in my mind! Fast forward to 41, and I faced a serious health scare, a wake-up call that had me juggling between vegan and pescatarian diets, ditching dairy but not fully embracing plant-based living.

​

And then there was the weight rollercoaster, sometimes a bit more to love, other times skinny but with a stubborn belly. It all led to a bout of depression and anxiety, something I'd never experienced before, and suddenly I was on medication.

​

I knew deep down, something had to shift. I've always been a beacon of happiness, and I longed to reclaim that energy. This shift materialized as a commitment to a full plant-based lifestyle – no meat, fish, dairy, or processed foods. This wasn't just a diet change; it was a life overhaul. It turned me into this energetic, fit, and focused version of myself, eating plants in their most natural state. "I'm in Love with ME again!"

​

But this journey is ever-evolving. Beyond just my waistline, I've grown passionate about disease prevention and ensuring a quality life as I age and one that I want to share with you.
